From what I've heard of Steven's new album, it actually is pretty good. His drumming still sounds great and I've always loved his drum sound. I hate how I have to enjoy the sounds of the elements of original Gn'R separately, because the whole is definitely greater than the sum of the parts, but at least they still all make music and are alive. I do like Steven's new music.

I have NEVER thought Steven was a bad drummer, it's just just that perhaps he should "shut up" and drum IMO

I bet no one is going to give a shit about his album except for hardcores.

The only significant (meaning music people who weren't hardcores gave a shit about) pieces of music that ever came out of any post gnr project were Slither and Fall to Pieces off Contraband. Other than that, outside these forums, nobody gives a shit about post 1993 material. Sad but true.

That was back when GN'R was fresh in everyone's minds, back when the music was relevant. Nobody gives a shit anymore, not in the U.S. at least.

That is true.

However, for me personally speaking, there aren't many significant pieces of music that come out anymore that I particularly care about. I think Steven should not shut up. The reality of matters is, as far as I or any other fan can tell, that original Gn'R will not be reuniting any time in the foreseeable future, except maybe for the Hall of Fame. Steven has inside info I'm sure, and we do not. Maybe it is obvious to him that they will not be reuniting even for the HoF. I'm sure even he knows that there aren't a lot of people out there that follow his musical ventures anymore. Right now, with the Hall of Fame, he'sgoing to be getting more press than he has in a while or will have for a while. He's putting himself in the news as much as he can by saying these things, and all publicity is good publicity. I didn't even know he had an album out. Then he says his new album is better than Chinese, and so I looked it up and listened to a couple tracks and I like it. Now he's made a sale with me. If he didn't talk, he wouldn't have because I didn't know he even had a new album out. He's got nothing to lose.

HAHAHAHAHA so Steven will play along with the CD at the RnR HOF if no one performs? This guy is fucking genius, he could get things moving, hahahahaha, this is going to be legendary

Some folks think of happiness, blissfulness, togetherness, some fools fool themselves I guess, but they're not fooling me.
I know it isn't true, I know it isn't true, love is a just a lie, made to make you blue.

GNR is as "fresh in everyone's minds" now then it was in 2004. Greatest Hits just hit number 3 after eight years of availability. People in the US don't care about Axl's nu guns, not the Guns N Roses they knew. Even outside the US I don't think people are dying for new "nu" material. And I still constantly hear Slither and Fall To Pieces constantly on my local rock stations, damn near eight years later. That's significant.
